What two numbers multiply to 395 and add up to 396?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 395 and add up to 396?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 395

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 395 multiply to 395 and add up to 396:

1 × 395 = 395
1 + 395 = 396

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x² + 396x + 395 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x + 1 ) (x + 395)

To summarize, since 1 and 395 multiply to 395 and add up 396, you know that the following is true:

x² + 396x + 395 = (x + 1 ) (x + 395)
